Oak-ra-Coke
One of my favorite places in NC is Ocracoke Island in the Outer Banks. The entire strand of the Outer Banks is great. Start at one end and take all the car ferry's and bridges to the other.
Renting a house for a week, a few years ago, was a highlight of the summer. It is a very small island that is best seen by bike or walking. You can tour the entire island in a few hours.
Feeding the birds from the car ferry.
These boys are my nephews Ethan and Aaron.

This is acutally on top of a gas station on the way to Ocracoke. But isn't it cool?
Some sites around the island..
The Ocracoke Lighthouse.
Yes, these are real pelicans
Odd choice in beach chairs..

I would love to go back and spend more time vegging. It is a beautiful place to visit, and if you get bored with Ocracoke, you can visit Cape Hatteras and climb the lighthouse. Visit Kitty Hawk and see where the Wright Brothers learned to fly. Or Rodanthe where they filmed the movie, Nights in Rodanthe with Richard Gere and Diane Lane. But don't forget to learn about the Pirate Blackbeard while visiting Ocracoke, or see the once wild horses that roamed the islands...and eat the fresh seafood....hmmm...
